The unbearableness of human evolution

It is one of those paradoxes. Consider a world in which the human mind fully accepted evolution. It wouldn't work, we would too often plan for failure.

I bring it up because Paul Ryan said something, its ok for someone to die early for lack of government health care. Krugman takes the position that Malthus can be controlled by human legislatures.

Death, differential death before mating is the main method for evolution. Another alternative is failures do not mate, but live long. I think the former predominates. But progressives claim to be scientific and believers in evolution. No, they are religionists about it, just like the other side.
